Job summary

E‑Space seeks a Senior Hardware Electrical Engineer to own the design and development of electrical systems and PCBA for mass‑produced consumer devices in Santa Clara, CA. You will design complex mixed‑signal circuits, optimize for space, power, and thermal, collaborate with industrial design, RF, battery teams, and lead reviews through design verification and mass production.

This full‑time role requires hands‑on debugging, test planning, and shaping a path to scalable, cost‑effective

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in electrical/computer engineering or related field.
• 3+ years designing consumer electronics products.
• Hands-on PCB design, schematic capture, and board bring-up in Altium Designer.
• Strong expertise in power management, low-power design, and thermal analysis.
• Experience with circuit simulation (SPICE) and mixed-signal circuit design.
• Proficiency with electrical test equipment and test planning for product validation.
• Experience working with industrial designers and mechanical engineers on form-factor integration.
• Experience with low-power and battery-powered mobile device design.
• Experience with multiple PCB technologies (rigid, flex, rigid flex).
• Experience with RF circuit design and antenna integration.
• Experience with IoT, wearables, phones, or compact consumer electronics.
• Experience bringing consumer products to mass production.

Responsibilities

• Own complete PCBA and electrical system development from architecture through mass production.
• Design schematic capture and high-density PCB layouts using Altium Designer, optimizing minimal space and thermal efficiency.
• Develop power architecture, conduct power analysis, and optimize low-power consumption in resource-constrained devices.
• Perform circuit analysis including signal integrity, EMI/EMC, and thermal simulation using SPICE and CAD tools.
• Select and evaluate components for performance, power efficiency, reliability, and cost-effective mass production.
• Develop test strategies and execute design verification, qualification, and production testing.
• Lead design reviews and collaborate with product, mechanical, industrial design, RF, and battery teams on system integration.
• Hands-on debugging of PCBA signals, power, bring-up, and other issues with feedback into design iterations.
• Support manufacturing for cost optimization, yield improvement, and efficient mass production.
